Should have covered Honda's V5, used in MotoGP It used a 75.5° bank angle and the rod journal for the center piston was offset 104° from all the others, perfectly offsetting the primary imbalances that a v5 would normally have
A Jz V12 already exists it's in the century. It is basically the same as two 1jz engines sure if the heads are compatible but I'm pretty sure you can make them fit
Sigh, the 1GZ is a completely unrelated engine that happens to have a similar displacement per cylinder as the 1JZ (albeit with totally different Bore and Stroke).
As a VR6 expert. Can tell you that the VR5 was made for those countries that insurance amount is based on your engines size. Hence why only a handful of counties had it. It was also short lived because soon after the laws changed. The power had nothing to do with it because Volkswagen was still using the 1.8t at the time that made more power and came in base model cars. The VR6 was designed to be a diesel.
If I remember correctly, both the base versions of 2.3L VR 5 and the 1.8T make the same HP and are only used in the GTI Model. There is a 150HP version for both and then the "upgraded" version with 170HP in the VR5 and 180HP in the 1.8T for the 25 year anniversary Golf Mk4 GTI. The 1.8T would just go a lot faster because the max torque range is higher in the turbo engine. The 2.3L would Rev higher and deliver less torque. The VR5 has some very unique and in my humble opinion pretty awesome sound and is beloved and hated by the VW following here in germany depending who you ask. It just doesn't really deliver as well as the 1.8T feeling wise. There is a saying about the VR5: You can hear it for a long time and you can see it for a long time.
@@haku1155 150hp, 185hp that came in special edition gti’s and the beetle S. 225hp that came in the Audi TT. Mind you this is North American as we never got the VR5. It was as 2.0L, 1.8t, and VR6 till the mk5 platform came with the 2.0t fsi. We got the diesel but it was the 1.9L TDI.
@@CruzanRastamonyea the GTI came in 4 Engine variations in Germany. Actually 3 but the 180 HP 1.8T is imho more like its own thing. V5 - 150HP rev1 and 170HP rev2 1.8T - 150HP rev1 and 180HP rev2 1.9 TDI. In the 1.9 TDI it was merely the interior and exterior line with the normal Diesel as the most powerful version had 135 HP. Much more interesting is the Polo 9N3 with the 1.9TDI and 130HP. That engine has lots of potential while being safely and easily upgradeable to almost 1.8T levels of power and stunning 300+ Nm of torque.
Koenigsegg first hypercar almost used the Subaru flat 12 engine from the failed F1 project. In fact the chassis was custom made to fit the engine but was later scrapped and they used the Ford V8 instead.
Jeez, and I complained about doing head gaskets on a Subaru 4 banger, that engine has to be at least three times worse! Imagine having to reseal the case halves of the engine block!😳
All these little V8s would be perfect hybridized. Electricity covers low end torque then put drag on the motor at high rpm to charge the battery because you want to rev an engine out but you don’t necessarily need 400hp in a 55mph corner. Anyone could easily make this today it would be the perfect drivers car and cost $1.3 mil and of course no one would buy it LoL.
Hey, thanks for turning me onto NEUTRON engines and Creg. If anyone who’s a real gearhead and has an extra 8 to 10 minutes to spend looking at amazing automotive engineering go throw some love at Creg over NEUTRON engines in Phoenix. Trust me you’ll dig it.!
Thank you for sharing that Subaru flat 12 engine's history! Now I know! This engine was tried again in offshore powerboat racing with lackluster success! Edwardo Polli - a wealthy Italian financier- had a custom made aluminum 44ft catamaran powered by four of these turbo 2.9liter flat12 engines, each engine made 550hp! Four engines drove two razor sharp surfacing propellers! Like all powerboats this boat was fast and fairly reliable but didn't win any championships and lasted 3 seasons maybe 4? His rivals all used big 8 liter V12 Lamborghini gas engine, Chevy big block gas engines or big 9.8 liter Isotta Fraschini diesels or SeaTek diesels!
Subj: Two motorcycle engines smashed together. Missing #1: An Englishman made a V12 joining two Kawasaki 1300 water cooled six inline, and keep thhe orinal frame. Added data, he made other delirious creations. Missing #2: The Honda V12, from two Honda 1050 CBX air cooled, made in the USA, runs on a original CBX frame, sounds sweet as mando. Excelent video ! 👍
I suspect you're referring to the "Allen Millyard Specials." For one guy, pushing the envelope of his curiosity, this guy is amazing. He found 2 Kawasaki 1300cc inline 4s. His engineering work is about as basic as you'll find. A hacksaw and a welder are primary tools in his shop, and he is a master with them. Just run a search for "Allen Millyard Specials" if you're curious.
Bit nitpicky about the Honda K48 but it would actually be a 4.7L V8 and not a 4.8L one because the K24 is actually only 2354cc which is 4708cc when multiplied by 2
Good video, very interesting. I would have been interested to hear how reliable (or not) the double-Hayabusa engines were, and would have liked to have at least heard the sound the MM-Subaru engine made. Otherwise great.
This “2 Hayabusa engines stuck together” thing is such a misnomer. It’s a different block, different crank… Might as well just say “this guy made a custom block/bottom end and put Hayabusa cylinder heads on it.”
I would have included Honda's RC211V which is a V5 and the NSR 750 which had oval pistons. Lots of unique engines out there tho and certainly can't list 'em all.
Others have mentioned it, but disputed that it counts because it isn't ready yet to go in a car, however the original builder had it running in a high-performance, open-water, race-boat!
I keep trying to say “5.7 litres and 120hp” But every time I get about half way through the “and” I get so nauseous and dizzy that I throw up and faint.
*TVR has entered the chat* "Smooshed V-engine? Yeah we tried that at the factory as well, but decided we should leave holocaust to the Germans." Also I appreciate you saying 'Subaru has a Legacy' rorororo
I assume with these small V8s, they can have flat plane cranks, which also means they can can fork n’ blade rods, which means each bank can be in-line with each other, meaning no stagger & thus no rocking couple & thus no 3rd order of imbalance.
At the big end 1 rod is normal looking. The other rod big end is very wide and a slot is cut into the big end so the other rod will fit there. Harley Davidson's still do this. However neither of the V8's being discussed have fork and blade rods. This rod arrangement is no longer considered optimal.
I think the Vulcan is a custom cosworth job. But the older astons like the Vanquish and v12 vantage were basically what you're saying. The One77 might be the ultimate version of that engine
You need to do a small diesels video. 1.9 vw, the 3.0 toyotas, the L100 Yanmar that is copied TO DEATH, I know there has to be some garden tractor engines and generator engines in there too.
8:00 They had very good reason for doing so. The staggered cylinders allowed 5 cylinders in the normal length of a 4. It isn't rocket science. And 9 years was a decent run, also. Too much dissing going on.
The flat twelve could have been great in a dragster (albeit larger). In theory it is the most balanced engine there is. Perfect primary and secondary balance, with almost zero chassis stress since every force cancels out. With DOHC heads, triple the displacement, nitro gas and a TF level supercharger pushing the same boost psi as now, you’d have an engine that revs way higher, flows air better, has more displacement, and will sound better. With that much performance headroom, 13k hp would be viable and would last an entire event without the need for a total rebuild every run.
I would love to stick 2 Yamaha R6 engines together to make it a 6L V8. The exhaust note would sound insane. It already sounds so good as a 4 cyl. It wouldn’t be the LFA but it would sound close enough I think.
By the hyabusa engines, im.guess the the 3.2 is the 1.6 conversion kit for the standard 1.3. If that's the case, the 3.2 should be capable of upward of 900-1100hp as the 1.6 with a turbo makes 550hp easily. Ghostrider had one. It looked scarey
What is important for acceleration and pulling power of the vehicle is the torque at the contactpatch between wheel and road. There are two ways of getting more pulling power at the road (which can be combined of course): 1.) increase the torque at the crankshaft ( = nominal torque of the engine), OR 2.) raise the rpm at which the torque is delivered. Why? Simply because the same torque at a higher rpm of the engine implies that a lower gearing and thus a higher multiplication of the torque in the transmission from engine to road can be used. So in the end it is the POWER (torque x rpm) and not the nominal torque of the engine that determines how hard it actually pulls on the road!
Well, the fact that those 2JZ's making well over 800 horsepower have insanely expensive aftermarket internals and a turbocharger as big around as a basketball and the 2JZ derived V12 is naturally aspirated might have something to do with the latter's power output.
The Hayabusa was never competitive. Back in 99 I would race the GTO class on my GSXR600 running against Hayabusa bikes. At Moroso Raceway I would run laps on them. They were 550 pounds bikes against a 390lb 600. They never had a chance.
Why make a V12 with 120 degrees? This engine has a 120 degree ignition interval, like a 6 cylinder engine, with ignition of each 2 cylinders occurring at the same time.
An interesting idea would be to make the exact opposite of the engines in the video and take a half of an s85 v10 and make an inline 5 out of it. Wondering if anyone did something like that. Would be pretty cool in my opinion.
Something that costs twice as much with half the power interests nobody! Here - let me pour your Big Gulp into two smaller cups and charge you twice as much for each. You cool with that? 8 D
So a semi-conspiracy theory i have is that during WW2, when Japan and Germany shared technology, Japan was gifted the VW type one engine aka the bug engine.... Which was also designed by Porsche hence why Subaru and porsche share similar performance

that engine was used on the supercar of 1988, caspita
It's wild that if you go from a boxer 6 to any other flat configured cylinder count it becomes the most unreliable engine ever.
Tbh, there's been several other companies that managed flat 4s with great reliability.
LMAO you never heard of the Porsche 917 or the the VW beetle??😂
Ferrari Testarossa used a flat 12. Can have perfect balance if done as a boxer
How about the 12-Rotor that Rob Dahm bought from Tyson Garvin of Apex Manufacturing and Design?...
Do the gm 4.3v6
Subi flat 12: blows head gaskets 3x more often than an STi😆
Can imagine that the biggest problem they'd have to overcome is preventing it overheating!
